In the year 2019, Arthur was born from the Touriga Nacional, Merlot, and Riesling grape varieties, paying tribute to childhood. In a unique harvest, our children stomped the grapes by foot to the sound of joyous laughter and songs. With a grenadine tone, it exudes intense floral notes, sous-bois, and spices. In the mouth, the sweetness of ripe red fruits predominates, particularly freshly harvested blackberries and chocolate. The maceration in oak barrels and with Riesling skins conferred a slight acidity with notes of ripe orange, bringing an unusual mineral trace, resulting in a mischievous wine of aromas, textures, and emotions, much like any childhood taste that marks us for life.
